Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/mlx5e: Move representor neigh cleanup to profile cleanup_tx For IP tunnel encapsulation in ECMP (Equal-Cost Multipath) mode, as the flow is duplicated to the peer eswitch, the related neighbour information on the peer uplink representor is created as well. In the cited commit, eswitch devcom unpair is moved to uplink unload API, specifically the profile->cleanup_tx. If there is a encap rule offloaded in ECMP mode, when one eswitch does unpair (because of unloading the driver, for instance), and the peer rule from the peer eswitch is going to be deleted, the use-after-free error is triggered while accessing neigh info, as it is already cleaned up in uplink's profile->disable, which is before its profile->cleanup_tx. To fix this issue, move the neigh cleanup to profile's cleanup_tx callback, and after mlx5e_cleanup_uplink_rep_tx is called. The neigh init is moved to init_tx for symmeter.

If there is a encap rule\\noffloaded in ECMP mode, when one eswitch does unpair (because of\\nunloading the driver, for instance), and the peer rule from the peer\\neswitch is going to be deleted, the use-after-free error is triggered\\nwhile accessing neigh info, as it is already cleaned up in uplink\u0027s\\nprofile-\u003edisable, which is before its profile-\u003ecleanup_tx.\\n\\nTo fix this issue, move the neigh cleanup to profile\u0027s cleanup_tx\\ncallback, and after mlx5e_cleanup_uplink_rep_tx is called.
